| Consulting: The Cost of Doing It
Yourself |






|
If you think about it, starting a business and creating
a professional presence takes time, money and effort. You know the
single most important thing to do is network.. network... network....
You can't be doing both at the same time. But, you still need to
show that you are part of something larger. Something that has mass
behind it. Something that is high quality. Every book written
on successful consulting says image is everything in a competitive
market.
You want to have collateral that speaks to your thoughtfulness,
creativity and professionalism. You want to be able to demonstrate
that everything you do is professional. A professional appearance
requires:
- Well designed business cards
- Professionally done brochures
- A high quality web presence
- Good technique
You've gotten in the door with a potential client because of
your communication skills and career credentials.
Group50 lets you get to the market quickly without
a lot of expense and time. Think about the time necessary to pick
a logo, design a business card, create brochures and letterhead,
set-up a company, build a web site, etc. It is tremendous work
requiring hundreds of hours. Hours you should be using to get
networking done. |
Out of Pocket Expenses if you did it yourself:
| Logo Design |
$ 400 |
| 500 multi-colored business cards and design |
$ 229 |
| Brochure design and layout |
$ 400 |
| 100 tri-fold multi-colored brochures |
$ 125 |
| Professionally designed web presence |
$ 2,500 |
| 500 Printed letter head and envelopes |
$ 350 |
| Newsletters and reports on networking, etc. |
$ 300 |
| 160 hours of your time at consulting rates |
$24,000 |
So, if you're doing this on your own, you
can expect to have out of pocket expenses of around
$4,300 and it could cost you over $20,000 of billable time. |
